    How They Built It with Michele Khouri

    In this week's episode of The Podcast Trapper, I am welcoming an incredible guest who I admire very much: Michelle Khouri. Michelle is the Founder & CEO and the Executive Producer of FRQNCY Media. Her first client was Coca-Cola - and since then, FRQNCY has produced podcasts for Apple, Spotify, TurboTax, Vox Creative, Diane Von Furstenburg, iHeartMedia, Olaplex and more. Today she’s also giving us a sneak peek into Recordical, a new business she’s launching--designed specifically for audio creators. In this episode, I am asking Michelle the hard-hitting questions I have always wanted to discuss with her as a fellow Founder and creator: How she works through fear as an entrepreneur, why she believes that brand research is important, and how she leveraged her big vision to launch an incredibly impactful brand.  If you are an entrepreneur, creator or podcaster, this episode will motivate and inspire you. Michelle has essential advice on how to dismiss the critics and silence your own self-doubt. She also shares actionable steps to know whether you’re in alignment with your purpose.  I hope you love my conversation with Michelle!
